Plump them like you would a raison.
The true goji is of the desert-thorns of the genus Lycium(Lye-SEE-um).I like to make berry berry smoothies.Goji-strawberry,goji-blueberry are my favorite.These I use as a treat for they are very high in simple sugers.I use a vita prep 3 blender to make the berries as smooth as possible.Ah crap now im hungry,time for a sprout sandwich and a green smoothie!
